Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On October 15, 2025, ASP Isotopes Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. and Lucid Capital Markets, LLC (the “Underwriters”), relating to the issuance and sale (the “Offering”) of 17,167,380 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), at a price per share of $11.65 to be paid by the Underwriters. Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriters an option to purchase up to an additional 2,575,106 shares of Common Stock (the “Additional Shares”) from the Company at the same price per share as the Shares.

 

The gross proceeds from the Offering are expected to be approximately $210.3 million before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company and assuming no exercise of the Underwriters’ option to purchase Additional Shares. The Offering is expected to close on October 16, 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

 

The Offering is being made pursuant to the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-290864) (the “Registration Statement”), which became automatically effective upon filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on October 14, 2025, and a related prospectus and prospectus supplement, each as filed with the Commission.

 

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Underwriters, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Underwriting Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties. A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is attached as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the material terms of the Underwriting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.

 

A copy of the legal opinion of Blank Rome LLP relating to the Shares is attached as Exhibit 5.1 hereto.
